Hi.
Thanks for posting query at HCM.

Usually ALT or AST values higher than "two times the upper normal limit", is considered abnormal ( in some countries, ALT or AST values of more than 100 are considered abnormal).

Value of AST or ALT greater than 85 or above maybe investigated further.
Alcohol ingestion and obesity are common causes of fatty liver disease.

your question does NOT mention the value (numbers).

you may post your question again details

thank you

OR

you may post a direct question to me via HCM portal.
